I specialize in working with children and parents. I have been working in the field of play therapy since 2011 when I was a graduate student. My approach to play therapy is non-directive, client-centered play therapy. I have worked with children from diverse backgrounds. I look at each child and figure out which therapeutic modality works best for them. In terms of parenting, I use Theraplay to build the attachment bond with the parent and child. I also assess the family and we can collaborate on ways that meet your family's needs. A child communicates through play, using toys as their words. I focus on child-centered, but I use different play therapy approaches on the the child and bring in biblio and art therapy. I’ve worked with children individually, in dyads, and in small groups. Play therapy is a passion of mine. I relate well to children and love how the relate their world through play. I continue to educate myself on play therapy by attending conferences, trainings, and reading on the subject. I am also a member of the Association for Play Therapy.
